WONDERFUL LOVERS
Being wonderful lovers
Is not only about making love sexually
But about “making love” all the time
Holding hands
Looking deeply within each others eyes
Letting the other know he/she is loved
Touching softly
Holding dearly
Lying in each others arms and feeling safe and warm
Finding out what feels good to the other
Yes, making love in a frenzy of emotions
And, making love softly
Considerately
Slowly with real focus at times
Changing pace freely and with flow
BEING LOVERS AND NOT JUST BUDDIES
OR
HOW WOULD YOU TREAT A LOVER?
The key to a good, lasting long-term relationship is keeping that special intimacy every day and to establish a trust where the other person knows you are the one solid base in their life.
Establish rapport and specialness at a high level each time interact (don’t assume the other knows or is in touch).
Softly, hi, Sweetheart, it’s so nice to hear your voice.
First 4 minutes
Stand or sit on a couch or lie together on a bed or couch
Be close and be quiet so you can really feel being with the other, breathe deeply
Interaction while together
A soft touch
A special look and smile
Holding hands
Intimacy
Establish such a deep intimacy and partnership that you can freely share even your
smallest feelings. Listen to the other as if you are listening and caring for a small
child; after all, that is really who you are talking to, the small child within each of
us. Give that child the ultimate respect.
Relationships must be nurtured and watered on a regular basis and can’t be put off,
any more than a small child could be put off and not feel bad.
Physical intimate touching and lovemaking (for at least a ½ hour) should be at least
twice a week to keep a relationship going, unless the partners both agree otherwise.
Avoid:
I’m busy now and can’t be bothered.
If you are busy, wait for the first feasible break and then go do the greeting and the
intimate contact as soon as possible.
Taking for granted
A quick kiss and a quick hug or anything that is “hit and run”, for that is not intimacy, it
is merely convenience.
